I. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
As a foreign language, English language is important to master, since it is used as a means of international communication. In Indonesia, it has been taught as compulsory subject at junior and senior high schools. However, the result of teaching English has not been satisfactory yet (Kasbolah, 2001:7).
The condition above makes the government realizes the importance of English and tries to develop the human resources who have capability in communication using English as a foreign language by legalizing the teaching of English in the elementary schools through the Decree of the Minister of Education and Culture of Indonesia No. 060/U/1993 dated February 25 1993. It is stated that English can be taught at elementary schools as a local content.
In relation to the Decree mentioned above, the national education office of Kabupaten Balangan has also recommended all elementary schools in this regency to include English as the local content. As a result, some of the elementary schools include English as one of the subjects taught starting from grade four.
One of the sub-districts of Balangan is Kecamatan Batu mandi. In this sub-district, all the elementary schools include English as a local content. However, the result of the teaching English has not been satisfactory yet. One of the problems is the low qualification of the English teachers. Many teachers are only graduated from senior high school, and most of them have never joined English teaching training. So, it is difficult for them to make effective teaching and learning.
In reference to the description above, the researcher is interested to conduct a research with the title: “The Qualifications of the English Teachers of Elementary Schools at Kecamatan Batu Mandi Balangan”
